Drottningholm Palace was originally a royal pleasure palace on the island of Lovön in Mälaren in the municipality of Ekerö. In addition to its museum use, it is also the private residence of the Swedish royal family Bernadotte, currently owned by King Carl XVI. Gustaf and his wife Silvia, who moved to the south wing as their main residence in 1982 and since then have only used the Stockholm Palace as their official residence and for representation purposes.

Drottningholm Labyrinth

Highlight • Monument

In this place there once stood a main attraction of Drottningholms English park. Gustav III’s Italian inspired labyrinth built in 1783-84. The hedges have since deteriorated and were replaced with flower beds.

You can either take your time and enjoy the full trip or take a shortcut from the beginning straight to the center. Here you will be greeted by a statue of Ares.

The full trip is ~2,5km long and takes approximately 30min. About halve-way through it will seem as if you were spat out at the beginning but don’t worry the outer flowerbeds are simply missing. Take a right turn, stay on the mossy path within the younger trees and just continue. You will be lead back into the labyrinth about a quarter circumference later.
